Speaking of…is a podcast by Milwaukee PBS and makes public media personal. This is our introduction. Think of it as a kind of user's manual for what you can expect to hear from us as we release a new episode every Friday.

Journalists Alexandria Mack, Mariano Avila and Scottie Lee Meyers share stories featuring our local friends and neighbors and exploring the MKE experience. The discussions consider life in southeastern Wisconsin, highlighting national and global topics of public interest, framed by diverse personal perspectives and thoughtful consideration.

Our hosts combine a passion for storytelling, concern for community and self-reflection to engage listeners in celebrating this place we call home. Join us for inspiration, investigation, and insight as we speak of Milwaukee. This is journalism with a coffee-break twist.
